Working With a Staffing Agency to Find Team Members During COVID-19
Despite the outbreak of COVID-19 halting global economies, many businesses and industries are continuing to hire, and operate in the face of unprecedented conditions. That being said, the nature of the hiring landscape has shifted and has taken some adjusting to, both for employers and those seeking work.
If you are looking to hire some new team members, consider partnering with a staffing agency such as LPC Personnel. There are many fantastic hiring benefits we can provide in spite of the lockdown and well after it’s over.
Deep Network of Qualified, Ready-to-Work Candidates
During a time of uncertainty, it can be tempting to hire the first person that walks through the door. Regardless of the situation, hiring someone that is either unqualified or not willing to stick around for the long haul will end up costing your company time, resources and efficiency.
Partnering with a staffing agency allows you to tap into a deep network of pre-screened, qualified and reliable candidates. Our reputation is on the line when we present you a potential hire, so you can rest assured you will only meet with the best of the best!
Build a Relationship for the Future
Expanding your network, especially during a crisis, is just good business sense! Relationships made now will be valuable down the road. Working together under challenging circumstances provides a unique opportunity to gage the work ethic and communication styles of both parties. A staffing agency can find you necessary team members for your current project – but that doesn’t mean the relationship ends then and there!
The opportunity to build a long-term, trustworthy professional relationship that benefits both parties is always available when you partner with LPC Personnel. Once we get to know how your unique company operates and the exact kind of candidates you look for, we can do our job that much better – it’s a partnership that only gets better with age! Why not start now?
Streamline Your Processes
In the era of COVID-19, time is of the essence. Businesses and candidates alike are eager to get back to operating like normal. However, abiding by ever-changing processes can be overwhelming, and can interfere with your business practices. Having someone on your side whose job it is to keep an ear to the ground of changing hiring practices and COVID-19 regulations will allow you to focus on managing your company.
Working with a staffing agency means you have the expertise of seasoned job search professionals on your side. From sourcing candidates that are right for your jobs, preparing them for virtual interviews (and making sure they show up), recruiters can provide a lot of valuable insight that can help get your positions filled faster.
We Will Handle the Tough Conversations
With any major event that affects the economy, standards are bound to shift a bit. Communicating these changes, such as adjustments to starting wages, can present a great deal of stress and anxiety for any manager. You don’t want to insult your candidates or put your company in bad standing with potential new hires, but you also have to be direct in communicating what you’re able to offer.
When you work with a staffing agency such as LPC Personnel, you can rest assured that we will have those tough conversations with our candidates so that they go into the interview with no surprises. We advocate on your behalf so that the messages your potential employees need to know are heard loud and clear. We have had years of experience handling the nitty gritty of the business world and are more than happy to save you the headache!
Finding great employees doesn’t have to be stressful. Whether you are looking for one new team member or twenty, give LPC a call. We have more than 30 years of staffing industry experience and would be happy to lend a hand during this uncertain time.
